Resolving Connection Attempt Errors

If the agent’s attempt to connect and validate fails, the error message usually contains a suggested resolution. For example, you may need to fix credentials or release the lockbox.

If the connection is refused because the entered IP address is incorrect, you need to cancel the wizard, delete the agent, and restart the wizard using the correct IP address. If the port is wrong, you can click the value beside the Port field to correct the value.

If the problem cannot be resolved at this time, close the Storage Device Setup dialog. The configuration that has been done up to the point where the error occurred is saved. After resolving the problem, edit the agent configuration and validate the settings. For more information, see Editing Configured Agents.

Managing certificates

In order to successfully make use of the Foglight commands in your monitoring environment, review the syntax conventions before getting started. The syntax conventions are as follows:

<foglight_home> is a placeholder that represents the path to the Foglight Management Server installation.
<foglight_agent_mgr_home> is a placeholder that represents the path to the Foglight Agent Manager installation. This can be the location of the Foglight Agent Manager installation on a monitored host, or the home directory of the Foglight Agent Manager that comes embedded with the Foglight Management Server. For example:

Foglight Evolve agents use Foglight Agent Manager (FglAM) to manage certificates for SSL encryption connection.

All the certificate-related command line options require that FglAM be up and running.

bin/fglam --add-certificate "user alias 1"=/path/to/certificate/file

The alias is required and is used in the list and delete operations to refer to the certificate. It can be anything.

bin/fglam --list-certificates

Print out a list of certificates and the aliases that refer to them.

Refer to the example output below:

Remove a certificate referred to by an alias.

bin/fglam --delete-certificate "user alias 1"
